Zimbra stopped working - something to do with ldap?

[geoffDeGeoffGeoff]

After running for a long time with no problems my installation stopped.
The exception seems to boil down to: Root exception is java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused

What failed to connect to what and how can I stop this from happening again?

Below is the error.

Thanks in advance,

Disk space? DNS set up correctly and pointing to your server?

[dgoldsmith]

Geoff, did you ever figure out the cause of this? The LDAP component on our Zimbra server just died a few minutes ago and we've got basically the exact same error message in our mailbox.log file.

David - It was a problem with the dns server of our hosting company
